About a lonely ex-bf
The Coat (2012)

The warm cozy coat composed of undying loyalty
And love absorbed on my skin like garments on royalty
Is no longer there.

Because she
Ripped and stripped my royal stripes away from me.
And robed the callous bastard with nothing but sin.
So I stand outside in air that pokes and pierces my skin
Alone.
